MauiTime Best of Maui 2003: Best Place to Breakup on Maui: A Luau

By far, the best place on Maui to have a violent, obnoxious, drunken shout-fest that results in the ending of a relationship would have to be in the middle of a luau. All of the key ingredients for a hilarious and memorable breakup are present. For one, you need alcohol. Every breakup is better with alcohol. Chances are you will both be more honest (and loud) and, truth be told, you were probably going to get into an inebriated argument anyway. Let the wine flow and God bless the open bar. Next, there are plenty of people around. You need an audience to cheer you on, boo you or just watch while drinks are thrown and embarrassing secrets are revealed. And three, there’s the show. What better way to call off your courtship than between the hula dancers and the crazy guy with the flaming stick? You can take in some hula, down some brews and tell your boyfriend that he is horrible in bed. The best part is, you have a great story to tell all of your friends. And to all you hula dancers out there, if a scene begins to erupt, just let the couple do their thing and remember that the show must go on. [IH]
